Entre Mare Designs

Classy, feminine, and elegant are just a few words that describe the creations of Sykao Adamski. Her fashion house, Entre Mare Designs, debuted in SL in June 2009 and has made quite the first impression. In fact, the designs are so lovely that I will go out on a limb and say that every woman should have at least one or more.

Simply put, these designs are breathtakingly gorgeous and will make anyone who wears them feel beautiful and alluring. Entre Mare caters to its clientele by providing an array of unique formal looks that range from cocktail dresses to ballroom gowns that are guranteed to make heads turn.

To learn how Sykao took her love of fashion and turned it into one of the grid’s most sought after brands in such a short time, check out the latest Issue of AVENUE Magazine.

It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll (But I Like It)

I’ve been looking for a perfect opportunity to wear this jacket and yesterday it came in the form of these truly outstanding tattoo’s designed by Xion Hax of addiXion. Newly released, these are real ink tattoo’s and to see them is to want them, to wear them is to love them. Of course i wanted to show it off, so i finally grabbed this awesome leather jacket from Grasp, just enough to cover what needed to be covered yet enough to show off what was important ;o)

Enjoy !
